Hitting with topspin can have several advantages for you and
give your opponents fits. But to get that good net
clearance you have to remember to swing from low to high
with a brushing motion on the ball.

One easy way to visualize topspin groundies is to think of
the NIKE Swoosh. Many players have the picture of a good
topspin shot right on the side of their shoes! Think of
your racquet moving like the Swoosh. Just remember to take
your racquet the path of the Swoosh and make sure you
are swinging from low to high with a level racquet face.
